Regulation of Glycolysis

• The rate of glycolysis is regulated by the regulation of
   the three irreversible enzymes (Key Enzymes).

• These enzymes catalyze what is called committed
   reactions of the pathway.

• These enzymes are:
    – Glucokinase (GK), Hexokinase (HK)
    – Phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1)
    – Pyruvate Kinase (PK)

                                                                                                                                            81
